With that vital blend of brand alignment and balls seemingly in perfect balance. Ford has unveiled its five-door Fiesta at the Beijing Auto Show. We were fairly impressed by the Verve concept last year, and all the more so by the fact that the real thing looked so similar. That the inherently more dumpy live-door version can look this good is further evidence that Ford has got the bit between its teeth. The S' trim here is for China only. Our Zetec S will get big alloys, that hefty roof-mounted rear spoiler and aluminium inserts in the front grille. Little things that make it look far better than the bog-standard car will. First cars will go on sale in the UK towards the end of 2008, with a genuinely sporty version [ST] due some time next year.
